Chapter 358: Cao Cao arrives
"Humph!" Yan San shook his head, raised his glass and drank it all and said, "Waiting for you at any time, Yan will definitely entertain you in person when the time comes." ”
Being underestimated, Zhang Fei was very unhappy in his heart, but he didn't dare to make a move, so he could only hug the altar and drink wildly.
"Gurgling ......"
"Huh?" Zhang Fei suddenly stopped drinking, put down the jar and said, "It's not easy to do it here, do you dare to fight with me?" ”
Yan San said coldly: "If you fight, you will win or lose, do you have capital?" ”
"Humph!" Zhang Fei was unconvinced: "It hasn't started yet, what a big deal, if I lose, let you deal with it, then if you lose, what should you do?" ”
Yan San said: "It's the same, then don't talk nonsense, Yan will come first." ”
"Gurgling ......"
A jar of fine wine, in Yan Sansi's mouth, is simply a waste, and it will be wasted in a dozen breaths.
But in Zhang Fei's eyes, it was a different scene. "Good amount of wine, look at me."
"Gurgling ......"
Another dozen breaths, and a jar of fine wine has bottomed out.
As the two of them came and went, all the ministers looked sideways, and secretly sighed in their hearts about the amount of wine.
But when Liu Xiexin arrived in Luoyang, everything was supplied by others, and there was so much wine.
Under the two of them drinking so much, the prepared wine lasted less than a moment, and it was declared urgent.
Sima, the forbidden army in charge of the banquet, hurriedly reported to Liu Xie secretly.
Liu Xie learned that he waved his hand to let the forbidden army Sima leave. "Ladies and gentlemen, with today's festive atmosphere, the widow has announced a happy event, which has contributed to the success of good things."
Hearing Liu Xie's words, the ministers present all looked at him.
Liu Xiedao: "In order to continue the royal bloodline as soon as possible, the widow decided to accept the daughter of Liaodong Hou as the queen and spread the branches and leaves for the Han family as soon as possible. ”
"What, Your Majesty......"
"Well, why did Your Majesty suddenly ......"
……
The news exploded in the crowd like a hammer, and the ministers all exchanged their heads and whispered.
After the shock, the ministers congratulated one after another.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty......"
Liu Xie waved his hand and signaled the minister to be quiet. "Thank you Aiqing for your congratulations, but there is a problem at the moment, and I hope you Aiqing will help share the burden."
Well?
One thing after another, it seems that Liu Xie has made a big move.
"Your Majesty will do your best, even if your Majesty commands." Although they didn't know what to do, everyone still replied with compliments.
Liu Xiedao: "The widow has just arrived in Luoyang, and there is a shortage of grain and grass at the moment, and it is already winter, so I want to borrow some grain and grass from you Aiqing." ”
Borrowing food?
The minister who followed Liu Xie to Luoyang hurriedly knelt down and bowed.
"The ministers followed His Majesty all the way to Luoyang, and they also spent the day without food, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive their sins."
Liu Xie choked up and said: "All of you Aiqing are loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, and along the way, the widow also understands, so get up quickly." ”
When the princes and officials of the Quartet saw such a pretentious appearance, they all despised it in their hearts, and wanted to ask for food and grass, but they also pretended to be.
And Yan San couldn't sit still as early as when Liu Xieyan wanted to accept Li Huiyi's daughter as his queen, and when he heard that he was asking for food and grass, he quickly stood up.
"Your Majesty, the minister has very few soldiers and horses this time, so there are not many grains and grass to carry, but Your Majesty's holy words, the minister will do his best, so he will leave to gather his subordinates and hunt a thousand catties of game for Your Majesty."
Although there are not many kilograms, someone can take the lead, and Liu Xie is also satisfied. "Okay, then there's General Lao Yan."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, the minister is leaving." Yan San bowed his hand, and strode away under the eyes of everyone.
Chen Deng looked at his eyes, and quickly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister led his troops to come from afar, and the grain and herbs were already insufficient, but the holy word has been released, so the minister will go back to the camp to collect grain and grass, and half of it will be dedicated to Your Majesty." ”
Liu Xie nodded and said: "Okay, Aiqing's move, the widow is very moved, and he is worthy of being the emperor's uncle's subordinates." ”
Chen Deng returned the salute and hurriedly beckoned Zhang Fei to leave, for fear that something would happen to Liu Xieyou.
Seeing this, Yan Liang and Cao Hong also reluctantly expressed their willingness to return to the camp to collect grain and grass and deliver it in a few days.
And Yang Feng and others, who were about to leave, also took out some grain and grass to show their loyalty.
After Liu Xie's two speeches, everyone at the banquet had long lost their previous joy, and they were all full of worries, and got up to say goodbye and leave.
……
As Yan San hurried back, Yan Yun's eighteenth cavalry camp outside the city directly entered a state of combat readiness.
In the main tent, which was guarded by ten horsemen, the three of them were silent at this time, and each sat in contemplation.
The depressing atmosphere didn't last long, and I saw Yan Da stretching his brows and said, "The lord won't agree, so I'll rush back to report it myself." ”
Yan Er shook his head and said: "If you leave, the combat power will drop by three percent, if there is any accident and the main bus generation is not completed, what should I do?" ”
Yan San said: "Tomorrow, Yang Feng and the others will lead the troops to retreat, and there may be changes at that time, it may not be, and it is indeed a little inappropriate to leave at this time." ”
Yan Dadao: "This matter is decided like this, the red rabbit horse is fast, a round trip, it will not take many days, and it will not delay the business." ”
The reason why Yanda is so insistent is because he and Li Huiyi have one thing in common, that is, they pay attention to family affection.
Yan Er and Yan San glanced at each other and nodded.
"Okay, you go early and come back early."
"Well, well."
Since it was decided, Yan Da didn't stay long, so he immediately left the tent and got on the horse, and left at night.
And it was not only them who were worried and distressed, but Yuan, Liu, and Cao also sent people overnight to send the news back.
Three days later, the Quartet sent the prepared grain and grass into the city.
Seven days later, Sun Ce's subordinate Zhang Hong, led 3,000 soldiers and horses to escort 100,000 stone of grain to Luoyang.
Sending charcoal in the snow, Liu Xie learned that he personally went to the city gate to greet him, and personally set up a banquet in the palace to entertain Zhang Hong alone.
The next morning, Liu Xie canonized Sun Ce to succeed his father and appointed him as the pastor of Yangzhou.
Since Zhang Hong's arrival, Liu Xie seemed to have settled down, took care of restoring Luoyang's vitality, and issued a number of edicts.
First of all, they were exempted from the crime of being forced to be the common people and let them come to Luoyang to settle down.
Immediately afterwards, talented people from all over the world were summoned to Luoyang, and as long as they passed the oral examination of the ministers Dong Cheng and Xu Huang, they could enter the court as officials, or go to the army and serve as non-commissioned officers.
As soon as the amnesty edict and the summoning order came out, some people who cherished the Han people or were depressed with talent and learning, went to Luoyang one after another.
The dilapidated Luoyang City, with the arrival of more and more people, is full of vitality and looks like a rapid recovery.
Half a month later, Cao Cao personally led an army of 50,000 to come, breaking the brief silence.
When the news reached the palace, Liu Xieqin led hundreds of officials and went out of the city five miles to greet him.
The two sides collided, and Cao Cao ordered the army to wait in place, personally led more than ten generals, and Pegasus moved forward.
Seeing Liu Xie's car, Cao Cao hurriedly turned over and dismounted and knelt down. "Chen Cao Cao has seen Your Majesty."
Liu Xie hurriedly got out of the car, stepped forward to help Cao Cao and said, "Cao Aiqing has worked hard all the way, get up quickly." ”
Cao Cao said: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
After a simple politeness, the monarch and the minister led their troops to Luoyang.
At this moment, history seems to have returned to the track, and Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and also took his first step.
As for whether things will progress like history, it is impossible to know, after all, there is one more Li Huiyi, and no one dares to make a rash assertion.
